Descendants of Wagner

Generation No. 1

1.  WAGNER¹¹ was born WFT Est. 1839-1868¹, and died WFT Est. 1894-1953¹.  He married (1) CATHERINE STEIGMEYER¹ WFT Est. 1856-1906², daughter of MAURICE STEIGMEYER and MARIA SENN.  She was born WFT Est. 1835-1870³, and died WFT Est. 1893-1956³.  He married (2) <UNNAMED>⁴ WFT Est. 1862-1910⁵.  She died Unknown.

Notes for WAGNER:

[William R. Livengood, v34t1695.FTW, and v56t2507.FTW,  (World Family Tree submissions Volume 34 Tree 1695, and Volume 56 Tree 2507), "CD-ROM," Date of Import: Dec 25, 2000.]

Catherine was apparently the youngest of the four daughters of Maurice and Maria.  A letter from William J Wagner of Logansport, Cass County, Indiana indicates that he is a son of the same WAGNER but of a "different mother."  He indicates that there were children by the first marriage and that apparently Catherine died and Mr Wagner remarried.  The influence of the railroad industry entered here and the daughters married railroad men.  William J Wagner is a retired railroader.  The matter of religion also came into the picture for we find the basic unit was Roman Catholic and some of the daughters married Protestants.  Contact at church was thus lost and the method of travel prevented the getting together of the families.

Children of WAGNER and CATHERINE STEIGMEYER are:

                   i.    GEORGE W² WAGNER⁶, b. 17 Apr 1888⁶; d. WFT Est. 1889-1978⁶.

                  ii.    BERNARD A WAGNER⁶, b. 12 Aug 1891⁶; d. WFT Est. 1892-1981⁶.

Child of WAGNER and <UNNAMED> is:

                 iii.    WILLIAM J² WAGNER⁶, b. WFT Est. 1866-1911⁶; d. WFT Est. 1880-1989⁶.
